The elusive 'Luxus' Leica in 100% original and very good condition. The camera with gold plated metal parts and a lizard-skin covered body was never restored and shows the typical light patina. Only 95 'Luxus' Leicas were produced from 1929 to 1931; some were later converted or upgraded - only a handful of cameras exist in this original condition. An original Luxus Leica is one of the major rarities in the Leica world. The offered example was delivered to New York in 1930 as LESSALUX (Leica Luxus). See Lager I page 26 for an antecedent camera no.48401.
